Sara was in the kitchen washing up when her husband, John, came downstairs finishing a call on his mobile. "Who was that on the phone hun?" Sara asked him. "Oh, it was Clarke from work, trying to organise a poker night. I said we could do it around here if you don't mind." She was more than happy for John to have his mate's round, after all she had enough...
Ellen emerged from the bath water, wrapped herself in a towel and stood before the full length mirror. She gently towel dried her hair and let it tumble down her shoulders in damp curls. She let the towel drop to the floor, and studied her curves in the mirror, ran her hands down her smooth thighs. She was pleased with the progress from all the running, she...
A young college girl stood quietly behind the counter of the sleepy café with her eyes trained on a dark and rainy street. The darkness of autumn made it seem like midnight when it was only 7pm. As she glanced around the café, she noted the regular college kids with their laptops glowing and ear buds creating a secret solitude while they studied and drank th...
Thanks to Karen for her editing skills. TSG * Present Day: "Knock, knock," came the sing-song voice. I looked up from my poolside lounge chair. Sue Wilson, a neighbor from around the corner is leaning against the white picket entrance to my backyard pool. Her pearl white smile lights the evening sky. She holds two Corona beers in one hand and a small coo...

It was impossible for James to focus on his work on Monday as the events of the day were little more than a prelude to his 6:00 PM appointment with Julia. The attending excitement and anticipation that accompanied regular visits with Julia were practically overwhelming for him to even comprehend. James thought about the time he had spent with Julia in recent...
Jeff arrived at Cindy's apartment that Friday night promptly at eight. His wife had been in a rage when he left. She didn't believe for a minute that he'd been called by an old college room-mate and had to go out with him. But Jeff would worry about Allison later. Right now he was almost faint with excitement at the prospect of a real date with Cindy. Afte...
"What happened to the old couch?" Mark asks. Dr. Z.'s decor looks shabbier and all in shades of phthalo. Is that the velveteen couch from his loft? The doctor's mumbled reply sounds like it's coming from underwater; Mark's brain can't seem to put the words in order. 'I must need new meds,' he thinks. "Your eyes are different, too." "I got new glasses. It'...
I can't remember the last time I had been out drinking, but I know that it's been a long, long time. After graduation, I had mostly been eating, sleeping and working. I did end up moving away after college to my own place, and thus, moving away from a lot of people I knew. It had resulted in me being awfully lonely for quite some time, I had to admit. I don...
It wasn't a beginning or an end. It just was. There was him and there was her. They were together. They had always been together, and they would always be together. They could think of their lives no other way. Their lives were completely intertwined. They DEPENDED on each other. Life in Scotland was not easy, but they loved it. They were children of the gle...
